Free-scoring striker Jordy Hiwula has been a regular name on the scoresheet for the Academy over the past few years has cemented his reputation as a bankable match winner for England at youth level too.

Hiwula was an inspirational figure for City in 2012's Al Ain International Juniors Championships winning side, scoring in three matches against Valencia, Al Ain and the UAE national team.

Capable of scoring all types of goals, Hiwula struck up a prolific partnership with Devante Cole at Academy before a knee injury curtailed his involvement in the 2012/13 season.

The Stretford-Schooled striker scored twice against Middlesbrough at the Etihad Stadium at the start of last season but suffered the injury which ended his campaign shortly after.

Now fit again, Hiwula will be hoping to make a name for himself in Patrick Vieira's new-look EDS side.

He got off to a perfect start on this count by bagging the golden boot at the Oberndorf Tournament in August 2013.
